I'd like to first tell you about my services and then further down I share a more personal bio. Please know that I am happy to answer questions via email or phone and welcome the opportunity to meet in-person here in Marin and San Francisco.

In 1:1 sessions with clients, I access higher powers using tools from Chinese healing arts, techniques from Qi Gong, and teachings from Eastern philosophies that expand capacity for healing and initiate quantum leaps forward toward meeting one's life purpose. Over the years, in addition to working with individuals, my work has expanded into group, partner, and family facilitations opening channels, resolving conflict and harmonizing these essential relationships.

I love doing this work as it feels like my gift to the world. Please CLICK HERE to read some of reviews. Also, please know that I work on a "pay-as-you-will" model that you can learn more about HERE.

And here's more of a personal About Me...

Family time back in 2016

​I was born in Flint, Michigan in 1973 and lived a middle-upper class suburban life up until I left home to attend college, graduating from University of Vermont's business school in '95. With little to no desire to work in a corporate atmosphere and few prospects otherwise I took my first career position with a bank in Chicago and watched as my lifeforce slowly seeped away behind a desk all day.

I was crazy enough to leave the straight path and quit my banking job to join friends in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. My supporters were not happy and labeled my decision foolish and pronounced it a big mistake. Society echoed their concerns as I was now considered a "ski bum" and would likely never amount to much. Inherently I knew they were full of shit and that somehow happiness should be prioritized.

My intuition was rewarded as I had an incredible year, met my future wife and then continued my journey west to San Francisco to be embraced by a network of friends and where I was fortunate enough to be an integral part of the Internet's vibrant boom of corporate innovation and creativity. After an IPO, my 2nd startup went bust along with the larger Internet bubble and I took advantage of this opportunity to try something new.

Northern Shaolin Kung Fu Staff Form

When I moved to the Bay Area, I began practicing Internal Arts of the Far East including the martial arts of Taijiquan, Bagua, Hsing-I, and Northern Shaolin Kung Fu, as well as healing arts including Qi Gong and Yoga. Following my love of these practices, I gained a massage certification from the Acupressure Institute in Berkeley and later my Masters in Traditional Chinese Medicine (MSTCM) from the Academy of Chinese Culture and Health Sciences in Oakland. For 7+ years I ran a spirited medical practice helping people overcome imbalances, illnesses, and injuries, but somehow still felt unsettled as if something was wrong.

It wasn't until I read Charles Eisenstein's book, "Sacred Economics" that I could pinpoint what was askew.... The financial success of my business was predicated on (# of treatments) x ($ of treatment) = (my financial wellbeing) which was often in direct conflict with my patients' best interest. The goal was to get people better as quickly as possible and without costing them a fortune! I was in a double-bind, needing to provide for my family and wanting to do good in the world. I know that you have probably felt this bind too. I had to make a change and it would require a complete remodel, inside and out. ​

my whole family in 2017

So early in 2013, I closed my clinical practice, gave up my needles and herbs, and entered the realm of energetic and spiritual healing and teaching. I started working with clients both near and far, while transitioning to a pay-as-you-will business model as mentioned above. Being free from standard protocols and without huge overhead, I was more able to meet clients' needs. While it has been a challenge to market myself without a standard offering and to help people accept such a financial agreement, it has been inspiring to push boundaries toward a more beautiful world that is found in a culture based on the gift economy where my value is not fixed and my service not limited to those with financial reserves and plenty of free time. I have been truly touched by the generousity and depth of my relationships with clients.

In my free time, I serve on the Town of San Anselmo's Sustainability Commission and volunteer with the YMCA's Restorative Justice program. Personally, I love spending time outdoors with my wife, two teenagers, and dog. We adore our community in Marin County, California and are so grateful for the amazing people and places that make this our home.
